served in the United States navy. That year he
was appointed a brigadier general of the army
| and sent on duty to his own state He recruited
| thousands Of Onion volunteers At Shiloh
he commanded a division, remaining with
Buells army up to Bragg's invasion of Ken,
tuclzy. After the battle of Richmond he was
sent to look after the defenses of Louisville,
for that city expected visit from Bragg
when Kirby Smith was advancing ON Louis
/ Vile
With great vigor Nelson SET about fortify-
ing the Kentucky metropolis, but his way was
different from that resorted to by Lew Wal.
lace Wallace issued proclamation calling
ON the citizens of Cincinnati to aid in throw
ing up the earthworks, and wealthy and prom
| with their own hands. Nelson, on the other
hand, gave out the following order:
"Having been called on for 900 laborers, it
is ordered that the citizens of Louisville and
jefferson county report to Col Henry Dent
| the number of slaves each will furnish, and
they will deliver them into the custody of Col.
Dent, to be used in the erection of fortifica-
| tions. Col Dent is ordered to impress a sufii-
cient number of laborers to erect the works of
defense"
Wherever negroes were found at large in
the streets they were seized and set to work,
and there was wild scurrying to and fro of
duslSy forms, and hiding away as soon as the
order became known. Thus the Notifications
at Covington were built voluntarily by citi-
zens Of Cincinnati and vicinity. Those of
Louisville were made by the forced labor of
| negro slaves
Gen. Nelson was brave and able soldier.
But be had temper which was terror to
those who were forced to be about him. His
soldiers knew this well, and sometimes made
it serve their amusement One evening an
innocent looking civilian came into his camp

RAIILE OE RICHMOND.

Gen. N. D. Manson wes near Richmond,
Ky, with a small force. which had been con-
siderably increased through the patriotic ek-
ertions OF Gen. Lew Wallace, CT Indiana.
The appearance of Kirby Smith before
Richmond carried CONSERVATION into the
heart OF Kentucky. Frankfort, the capital,
was only fifty miles distant. With the legis-
lature III session, that body hastily adjourned
to Louisville. The state records were also re-
moved thither, with million dollars of
money from the banks in this region.
Gen. Manson's troops had been attacked by
Kirby Smiths advance at Big Hill Aug.
%, and retreated to Richmond. Here
Manson was re-enforced by a number of
newly organized regiments from Ohio, Ken
lucky and Indiana. This was just after
President Lincoln's call for 100000 more, y
and the north was filed with the camps
of the fresh volunteers The new regiments
under Manson hardly new how to form a
line OF battle, and were ignorant of the first
principles of field eYOlutions, The officers
were, for the main part as green as the men.
These raw, Impractical troops were TO meet
on the field at Richmond the Confederate
veterans Of Shiloh, and other fields under
such leaders as Kirby Smith and Gen. Pat
Cleburne.
Aug. 20, Kirby Smith came on and offered
battle. Manson advanced to meet him and
drove hin back to Rogersgille, two miles
from Richmond. Here Manson encamped for
the night. What is called the battle Of Rich
mond took place next day, aug. so.
The fighting began anew on the morning
Of this day. Manson and Brig. Gen. Cruft,
who had distinguished himself at Doneson,
advanced to meet the Confederate attack.
After heavy fighting one mile south OF
Rogersville, the Union troops were routed
with heavy loss. Ia the action the lieuten-
ant colonel and major of tho Seventy first
Indiana were killed, leaving that regiment
without field officer.

them at Camp Joe Holt, on the Ohio side Of The
river, on account Of Kentuekys neutrality.
He was a brigadier general of volunteers
il 1854 He fought at Shiloh, and gallantly
against Bragg at Perryville, Ky, and there
upon was made major general of volun-
teers. He was at Chickamauga, and organized a
famous raid into Alabama. The next step in his
varied career was an election TO congress- Inn
mediately on the close of the war. Then once
more into the army in which he was appointed
regular hTigadier general and sent on duty to
Alaska. He was recalled and sent to command
at New Orleans, where he died in 1869. Gen.
Rousseau man of magnificent physical ap-
pearance, the typical "big Kentuckian."
Buell. hastened on to Louisville. He won
the race, if Bragg had really meant to go
there. But Bragg himself says in his report
that at this time he found himself in a s'hostile
country with only three days food for his
men. He therefore determined to defect his
course to the right instead Of proceeding still
further into a hostile country, to fix his head
quarters at Bardstown and draw supplies
from Lexington
Buell. and Bragg each claimed to be at
tempting to draw the other into battle
At all events, however, this purposeless
tramping through Kentucky had done little
good for the army of Gen Buell. Reaching
Louisville, it encamped on the river shore, be-
low the city.
"And when we got there there were only
